Biografía
- Front de Cadeaux are Hugosan (Rome) and Dj Athome (Brussels) We are a duo dj playing only 45RPM at wrong speed and we call it Supreme Rallentato. We are producing and remixing since 2013.The origins of Front de Cadeaux can be traced back to a dating site for bears, some ten years ago. After Maurizio had spotted a Felix Kubin poster on one of Ugo's pictures, the two started chatting. Very much intrigued, Ugo invited Maurizio, who lives in Brussels, to play at a festival he organised in Rome. Shortly thereafter Ugo made Maurizio a resident of his Subwoofer night, one of the first bear parties in Europa that existed outside of the mainstream bear realm. The two bonded over food of course, over their belief that dance culture is rotting from the inside, and even more over slow, heavy electronic music. You have to picture it: a flat in Brussels, a table with empty bowls and bottles, thick smoke and these two daddy dj’s listening to stacks and stacks of UK rave and breakbeat records on 33 instead of 45 rpm. Testing how deep and sexy these garbage records sound at a pace the bears can actually follow without dropping dead – Ugo & Maurizio baptised it ‘supreme rallentato’. During those early encounters, their decade long dj experience merged into one, just like their vision that dance culture urgently needs a revolution. To them that means playing 90 bpm in a club at 3am whilst the promoters are shitting themselves, showing everyone that the body follows the groove, and not the bpm, a capitalist and macho construct that’s making crowds go numb instead of making them dance. Since 2013 some queer club anthems has been released like Le Pédé BPM, La Ketamine, Ouvre ta Bouche, We Slowly Rot and this February 2022 a new ep called "Sad is Fashion" has been released on Antinote Records and it will be followed by our 1st album released on 16th September (2 LP, Antinote)̸Latest Releases: Front de Cadeaux - La Ketamine (Emet 1, 2018) Front de Cadeaux - Supreme Rallentato Series (Self releases on bandcamp) Front de Cadeaux - We Slowly Rot (Emet 3, 2019) Front de Cadeaux - Fabrizio Mammarella Reworks (Slowmotion,2019) Front de Cadeaux - Sad is Fashion EP (Antinote, 2022) Front de Cadeaux - We Slowly Riot (2 LP, Antinote, 2022)
